SUMMONED by J.P Jackson – Review

Nothing gets me hooked faster than a fully envisioned urban fantasy world with a societal structure outside the human norm. J.P. Jackson’s soon-to-be-published novel SUMMONED has just that.

April Book Wishlist

April is right around the corner and with that Spring. Officially Spring was the 20th of March but here at VeL live in New England. We’re lucky if it shows itself at all before May. With the changing of the seasons comes a slew of new releases in the book world. No longer do we…

Lately, I’ve been talking a lot about the stuff around my writing and not so much about my writing itself.

#onemillionwords 2021 Week 12

What’s a writer to do when the well starts to run dry? Spend hours googling writing prompts, it seems.

Hard to believe it’s already March. It doesn’t look all that different from March last year for some of us. For anyone curious as to what #onemillionwords is click here for the week 1 update which explains it all. After spending a year stuck inside a 860 sq ft box of an apartment, I’ve come…

Netflix’s Original October Faction – Review

It’s March again and some of us are still in lockdown. After a year, I thought I had binged all I would want to binge on Netflix but I was wrong. Earlier this week Netflix gave me a suggestion for one of their original series by the title October Faction. For all the comic book…
